Did you know more than 200 local volunteers helped bring Waikanae Pools to life using some very basic equipment? Planning began in 1965, digging started in 1969, and the pool opened in 1971.

In the first photo, you can see a hole-boring machine lent by the Post Office to help prepare for the fencing. Four Post Office staff gave up their weekend to operate it. The second photo features Don Liddle, one of the projectโ€™s chief movers and shakers.

What an incredible example of our community coming together to make something happen and create something for us all to enjoy today!

Nothing beats the view from the top of the hydroslide! โ˜€๏ธ Last summer, there were 8,043 trips down the hydroslide. That's 8,043 screams, splashes, and "one more go!" moments.

The best part is... there's no age limit, so adults get yourself a pass too ๐Ÿ˜‰
